[SOLD-OUT] Bachelet-Monnot Santenay Les Prarons Dessus 2020

 

“The 2020 Santenay Prarons Dessus presents a tightly wound, tertiary bouquet that opens almost reluctantly in the glass. The palate is well balanced and quite saline, and the 25% whole bunches are nicely integrated. Rather spicy with a touch of balsamic toward the finish. So much freshness and vibrancy in this Santenay! Excellent.” - Neal Martin, Vinous

 

 

"Les Prarons Dessus is one of Santenay’s northernmost vineyards, adjacent to Chassagne 1er Cru Morgeot and just beneath Clos de Tavannes. The chalky soils here are rich in red clay which, combined with the old vines, gives a darker, rounder Santenay with more flesh and finer tannins. This is one-third whole bunch, and the wine was raised in traditional 228-litre barrels (20% new)." - Bibendum
